Probing the nature of short swift bursts via deep INTEGRAL monitoring of GRB 050925
Sakamoto, T.; Gehrels, N.; Cummings, J. R. +10 more
We present results from Swift, XMM-Newton, and deep INTEGRAL monitoring in the region of GRB 050925. This short Swift burst is a candidate for a newly discovered soft gamma-ray repeater (SGR) with the following observational burst properties: (1) galactic plane (b = -0.1°) localization, (2) 150 ms duration, and (3) a blackbody rather than a simple…
The INTEGRAL view of Gamma-Ray Bursts
McGlynn, S.; Foley, S.; Bazzano, A. +3 more
After more than six and half years in orbit, the ESA space observatory INTEGRAL has provided new, exciting results in the soft gamma-ray energy range (from a few keV to a few MeV). With the discovery of about 700 hard X-Ray sources, it has changed our previous view of a sky composed of peculiar and “monster” sources. The new high energy sky is in …
